About Hawaii Nautical – Waikoloa Deluxe Afternoon Whale Watch
Afternoon light, open ocean views and the excitement of whale season come together on this 1.5-hour cruise from Anaeho'omalu Bay. Aboard Spirit of Aloha, you'll sail along the Kohala Coast in search of humpback whales returning to Hawaii's warm winter waters from December through March.
Watch for breaches, tail slaps and playful activity at the surface while the crew shares insight into whale behavior, migration patterns and marine conservation. Tropical cocktails, beer, wine, soda and juice are available as you relax and take in panoramic views of the coastline, Mauna Kea and Hualalai.
